The epidemiology of residual Plasmodium falciparum malaria transmission and infection burden in an African city with high coverage of multiple vector control measures. [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: In the Tanzanian city of Dar es Salaam, high coverage of long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs), larvicide application (LA) and mosquito-proofed housing, was complemented with improved access to artemisinin-based combination therapy and rapid

Fine‐Scale Landscape Genomics Show Asymmetric Patterns of Gene Flow for the Invasive Mosquito Aedes albopictus

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Invasive Ae. albopictus populations demonstrate substantial gene flow within local metropolitan areas, with urban city centers serving as genetic sinks and surrounding suburban and rural regions serving as sources. We show how heterogeneous landscapes shape mosquito population connectivity and migration at fine spatial scales, which is critical for ...

Multicentre studies of insecticide-treated durable wall lining in Africa and South-East Asia: entomological efficacy and household acceptability during one year of field use. [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Indoor residual spraying (IRS) is a primary method of malaria vector control, but its potential impact is constrained by several inherent limitations: spraying must be repeated when insecticide residues decay, householders can tire of the ...

Malaria Morbidity and Its Association With Indoor Residual Spraying in Amolatar District, Uganda: A Retrospective Ecological Study Using Routine DHIS2 Data

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Despite sustained investments in malaria control, Uganda continues to experience recurrent malaria morbidity. Indoor residual spraying (IRS) is a key vector control intervention; however, evidence regarding its short‐term effectiveness under routine district‐level data remains limited.

Installation of insecticide-treated durable wall lining: evaluation of attachment materials and product durability under field conditions. [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Insecticide-treated durable wall lining (DL) is a new method of vector control designed to supplement LLINs and overcome two inherent limitations of LLINs and IRS: nightly behavioural compliance and short residual activity, respectively.

Commercial permethrin elicits chemoreceptive responses on different Anopheles gambiae sensory appendages

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8609-8617, September 2026.
Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes exhibit takeoff responses when presented to commercial permethrin headspace. This product elicits electrophysiological activity in the antennae and tarsi. However, only the chemical information acquired from the tarsi plays a major role in the observed behavioral response.

Optimal control and multitrophic physiologically‐based models: The binomial for successful decision support systems in insect pest management

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 9285-9292, September 2026.
Decision‐making in integrated pest management (IPM) corresponds to an optimisation problem where the plant–pest dynamics and the control actions are constraints and where the objective function accounts for the costs of the treatments and the total income at the harvest time.
